Screwfix and Wickes often work out cheaper than Plumb Centre, unless you are an account customer with a trade discount.
I haven't found any problems with the quality of rads from either Screwfix or Wickes.
The only problems are with bad packaging and consequent damage. Screwfix are fine, wrapped in good heavy-duty cardboard. The problem with Wickes rads is that they are only covered in a thin layer of plastic. Then the rads are forced between the metal shelf brackets in the store, and end up badly scratched and chipped. I have been to Wickes on several occasions, where the rads I wanted were in stock, but all damaged. Make sure you check!
